 Virtual farming is indeed a good way to escape myself from my real life issues and get myself busy having fun with my online buddies. Siao liao. I have just started Farm Town for a week, and now I’m hooked. Die…really hooked. LOL!
But then, I’ve achieved what I want, which is just a farm house. [...]

 A few things turned up unexpected lately, so I’m trying my best to stay cool and cope with it.
Firstly, hubby found his preferred school for Justin, which is way much cheaper than most international schools. It’s an international within a university community, which is meant for the kids of master degree or Phd students, and [...]

 Our cleaner comes to our house twice a week for cleaning and so far she performs rather well. The only problem is she doesn’t do the laundry and garden, but I can’t expect too much. As long as she continues to wash the bathrooms, scrub the floor, clean my kitchen stove and copper kitchen sinks, [...]

 I’m glad that Msau shared her experience with H1N1, and if you are interested to know about it, please hop over to her blog. A lot of us are worried about the flu, but then, I’m taking it easy now. Justin was sick a few weeks ago, but we were glad that the pediatrician confirmed [...]

I prefer to step away and let hubby handle Isabelle, especially if I’ve reached my patience level. So, when hubby was lecturing her last night, I quickly grabbed my camera and snapped some photos. LOL!
We ate out last night, and all of us went back with full tummies. When the kids asked for their supper [...]

Hubby suggested that we made a trip to Khong Suan 100 Year Old Market on Mother’s Day. All of us really “dilly dally” the whole morning so by the time we left home, it’s almost 11am. It’s so sunny and hot, and the journey to Khlong Suan Old Market took about 2 hours! You bet [...]

Mother’s Day is celebrated on 12 Aug which is also the birthday of Her Majesty the Queen of Thailand. A day before, there was a mini concert at our kids’ preschool, and parents were invited to attend. All mothers were given “respect” and presents by their children. I was in cloud nine when my kids [...]

I had a crappy Mother’s Day yesterday. Why? It’s because hubby was eager to get out of town and we drove about 2 hours to a 100 years old market in dunno what place and there was nothing to see. It was very sunny yesterday, and I was so irritated by the heat. [...]

 It’s the Queen’s birthday tomorrow, and Thai people celebrate Mother’s Day on the same day as well. So, we are having a day off, and hubby suggested that we make a short trip out of town. I’m not sure where are we going yet, but I sure hope that the traffic won’t be too bad.
Frankly, [...]

 We went to our kids’ school this morning for their mini concert, which was held in conjunction of Mother’s Day in Thailand. It’s just a simple concert, and it ended before noon. So right now, our kids are tugging along with us at the office.
I’ve tried to put them to sleep for one hour, and [...]
